It all depends on what you want to report on.
It is possible to only use SQL Reporting. I've done this on several occasions.

There is a second option: using the reporting tool Splunk (http://www.splunk.com)
This is a 'free' stand-alone reporting solution for all kind of datasources.

OCG created a Splunk for FIM app (http://apps.splunk.com/app/1463/).
This app contains oob reporting on the FIM Service AND the FIM Sync Service.

There are reports on performance, portal changes, sync performance etc.
Another section creates overviews on FIM / AD comparisons.
There is also a 'time-machine' option, which alows you to view historical data on an user or group.
